Description

1924-D 1C MS65 Red PCGS. Ex: Tom Mershon Collection. The 1924-D is a semi-key issue with only 2.5 million pieces produced. It is generally only encountered in grades below XF, and glowing red Gems such as this are especially scarce. Each side has lovely sunset-red coloration with a smooth, even appearance and soft golden undertones. Unusually sharply struck with no conspicuous abrasions on either side. About 20 degrees of counterclockwise die rotation is also noted. Undoubtedly, one of the finest 1924-D Cents we have handled. Population: 33 in 65, 1 finer (3/06).
